	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 1481, as amended, Committee on Governmental Organization. State
militia: armories: leases and sales.
   Existing law establishes a statutory process for the
identification of surplus state property and for the use of proceeds
from their sale or lease for the payment of principal and interest on
state deficit recovery bonds and, thereafter, for the deposit of
those proceeds into the Special Fund for Economic Uncertainties.
Existing law authorizes the Director of General Services, with the
approval of the Adjutant General, to lease and sell real property
held for armory purposes, subject to legislative approval. Existing
law establishes the Armory Fund and requires that the proceeds from
the sale or lease of armories be deposited in the fund, for use, upon
appropriation by the Legislature, for specified purposes related to
armories.
   This bill would  specify that proceeds from the sale or
lease of armories be deposited in the Armory Fund, notwithstanding
the   provide that the disposition of armory properties
shall not be subject to the  statutory provisions that require
proceeds from the sale or lease of surplus state property be applied
to retire state deficit recovery bonds and  , subsequently,
  thereafter  be deposited in the Special Fund for
Economic Uncertainties.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: no.
